The LSST Observatory at the peak of Phan Thiet in Chile is about 2,700 meters above sea level. The large integrated survey telescope LSST is built here to observe the sky with unprecedented details. Scientists predict that in the next 10 years, the LSST telescope will map the distribution of tens of billions of stars, the largest ever survey in history. The power of the LSST telescope is that it uses a 3.2 billion pixel digital camera to capture the sky in the entire southern hemisphere. The super digital camera has now completed the key decision 3 before acceptance. The telescope scientist Stephen Kahn said that we can now move on and assemble it. With the LSST telescope, scientists can study the formation of galaxies, track asteroids with potential threats, observe stellar explosions, and study dark matter and dark energy. Therefore, the scientific significance of the LSST telescope project is immeasurable. At present, the main mirror of the telescope is located in the clean room of the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center. The director of the center said that we are very happy to cooperate with the National Science Foundation to build such a powerful telescope. At the same time, the US Department of Energy Brookhaven National Laboratory and Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory are also involved in the manufacture of camera components. The Stanford Linear Accelerator Center is responsible for the management and system engineering of the entire project, including camera body design and production, data acquisition, control software, cryostat design and manufacturing, and of course the entire camera system.

The LSST telescope has a lens of 3.2 billion pixels and can capture nearly 40 times the full moon area. It provides scientists with the best optical photos and images of deep-sky objects in unprecedented detail. The camera of the LSST telescope weighs about 3 tons and is the size of a small car. This is the largest digital camera ever built.
